The "I've had enough of idle reverie" line in Landmines gives me chills. Just amazing.
+1  I really love that part of the song.  I'm struggling with the Rishloo album that it's on, but will always love the end of that song.

Yeah, LordCost sent that to me in my roulette, and let's just say the album didn't have the same effect on me as the song. :lol

And if you check out Communic, definitely listen not only to Waves but also to Conspiracy in Mind, which imo is even better.

Waves is their best album for me, followed by Payment of Existence and Conspiracy in third. While it's by no means bad the songwriting and performance on Conspiracy just isn't as mature. It has Silence Surrounds though which is simply superb (I like History Reversed and The Distance too).

I think Payment is a big step down from the first two, and Conspiracy is full of energy that Waves sometimes lacks, but that's tastes.  ;D So evermind, don't listen to me, listen to him.  ;)

Have you heard The Bottom Deep or Where Echoes Gather? Are they any good?

Well, still in second place, so I'm not complaining too much. I too like Midaftinn slightly more than Lighthouse, though I would probably score it slightly higher than you did.

Now let's see if I have anyting from 2018 that's not banned.

Reading the other write-ups...

because this is exactly the kind of dark progressive metal music that was all over my latest Top 50 Albums Thread. Need, Wolverine, Evergrey, Vanden Plas, those kind of bands

Fuck me, I am going to BOMB this roulette. I should have done all my research beforehand  :lol The only song I know in the ones that scored best (except Toto) is Rishloo's Landmines and I really like that song.

I'm going to have to send stuff I'm not crazy about if I want to advance. So, you're getting some landmines for real  :lol

Wow, I'm really not playing like someone who deserves immunity at this point  :lol Gonna have to figure something out in the next couple rounds.

Also, I wouldn't give up on Alcest just yet. They do have a lot of heavier, darker songs than the one I chose, which sounds like what you might have preferred.

Landmines was the first song I liked of the album and that helped me to try again the rest of the album, it was a grower for what I remember. Just A Ride is another fantastic song on par with Landmines, while Dead Rope Machine and Dark Charade follows closely those two in my ranking and they are still excellent.
Those are all the songs that end with a climax, and even if I recognize that they used a lot this trick I don't care because they are all so good.

Feathergun In The Garden Of The Sun and Katsushika are other Rishloo songs I frequently have in rotation from their previous album Feathergun, you can also give a try to them. I thought about changing Rishloo song this time, but it was a good choice in the end to persevere with the good old Landmines.

So it was rejected because people told you it was djent?  Or Elite could just tell from that comment that it was his and it was going to get a bad score so he swapped it?  Hmm...

I need one more song. Listening begins today on my commute from work.

This round will probably take a little longer as I have Delain gig on Saturday and then I'm flying to Hamburg for a five-days vacation, from Monday to Friday. We'll probably do first impressions and hangman before that, but results may have to wait before next weekend.

Just realized tomorrow is the day Moonglow comes out... there is a certain chance I'll be listening to that instead of the roulette songs. We'll see!
